New OLED Could Keep Devices Running Longer Per Charge
June 29, 2021 | Leave a Comment
University of Michigan researchers have developed a new electrode that could free up 20% more light from organic light-emitting diodes. It could help extend the battery life of smartphones and laptops, or make next-gen televisions and displays much more energy efficient. The approach prevents light from being trapped in the light-emitting part of an […]
